Hey everyone, this a chapter that has come from the heart. And some of it is from my own personal experience in my life as breakups aren't easy things to move on from. But in the end, we have everything we needed like before.

Chapter 29

The next day...

The family taking in Louise has been easy for the most part. But it comes down to one decision for the girls' whether or not they want Louise back permanently.

"Good morning, everyone." says Louise. "Morning, Louise." says Elizabeth. "Morning." says Juliet & Isabella. "What's everyone got going on today?" says Louise. "I've got work and the girls' have school. If you want to walk to school with the girls and come back, is fine." says Elizabeth. "I don't see why not."says Louise. "Okay, well I'm making coffee. I did get you tea, would you like some?" says Elizabeth. "Sure. Some green tea would be nice." says Louise. "Okay." says Elizabeth, brewing the coffee and getting the tea kettle ready. "You girls enjoying school?" says Louise. "Yes." says Juliet. "Yup." says Isabella. "Good." says Louise. "Here's your tea, Louise. You'd like lemon and honey?" says Elizabeth. "Sure, thanks." saysLouise. "I hate to say this, but I'm loving this happier you."says Elizabeth. "Why do you say that? Is it cause I got better?"says Louise. "Yes, it is for that." says Elizabeth, sipping her coffee. "Okay. Well you girls want breakfast?" says Louise. "We usually stop halfway and grab something at a cafe near the apartment." says Elizabeth. "Okay. Well this tea is delicious thank you. I'll cook something up in a few. You guys going to get ready?" says Louise. "Yes, we are just about to. Thanks for the reminder." says Elizabeth.

Everyone but Louise goes up to get ready. I've changed my mind about walking with the girls' today. I hope they have a good day and as I hope I do too.- Louise thought.

"See ya!" says Elizabeth. "You are not coming, Louise?" says Isabella. "Please?" says Juliet. "I'm good. You girls have a great day! Love you." says Louise. "Love you, too." says Juliet & Isabella.

After the girls' leave, Louise makes a quick breakfast and enjoys in the apartment and grabs her journal and writes for the morning. She writes- Living here with Elizabeth and Mitchell and the girls' have been wonderful. But I wonder if I start all over with the girls' in New York somewhere. Would they still want to see their adoptive parents more? I still wonder that from time to time. But today is a sunny, summer day. Not too hot. Just perfect. I think I'll kick back with a book and another cup of tea. I think getting that help has changed my perspective so much more. This life I have is so wonderful. I truly enjoy it.

Louise finishes up, and gets ready for the day. She hears the doorbell ring, and notices Mitchell is home earlier than usual.

"Hey, Mitchell; home from work so soon?" says Louise. "Had a pipe burst at work. So I'm going to finish up what I can from home. Girls leave?" says Mitchell. "Yes." says Louise. "I'll be working upstairs if you need anything." says Mitchell. "Okay, I'll leave you be. Want lunch in a little bit?" says Louise. "Yes, sure. Why not? I actually like being home for lunch. I usually am not anymore. I'll get going now." says Mitchell.

Mitchell heads up to his office, and finishes the rest of his work up. Louise grabs a book, makes another cup of tea, and sits outside to read. She notices the sun shining on her. A light of glory. A light of happiness. A light of joy.- Louise thought. She continues to read, and later makes lunch for her and Mitchell. He comes back down from his office to eat; Louise eats her lunch outside. After lunch is done, the girls' are back from school and work.
